Sending a page via e-mail (asp, cdon'ts, html e-mail) 1

[aspjunior]

Once I've looped through a record set and displayed articles for a particular date (asp and vbscript) I need the admin user to be able to e-mail this page to a bunch of people.
I'm not sure how to get started. Someone suggested using a div and innerhtml but not sure how to build my string to use in Cdonts. It will need to be in html.
Any help appreciated...

Here are the building blocks of a CDONT email

lsBody = "Build your body here"


' Create a new mail object
Set mailMessage = server.CreateObject("CDONTS.NewMail")
mailMessage.To = rsUsers("EmailAddress")
mailMessage.From = "The Webmaster" '
mailMessage.Subject = "Hello World"
mailMessage.Body = lsBody
mailMessage.MailFormat = 0  'send HTML format
mailMessage.BodyFormat = 0  'same
mailMessage.Send
set mailMessage = nothing

Is there an easy way to build the string from the recordset that has already looped and displayed the list on the page before the user hits "email"?
I'd like to pick all that stuff up eg. <div id=content> and then somehow use innerhtml for the variable lsBody so that I don't have to build the page again just for the e-mail.
If that's a possibility??

lsBody = "Build your body here"

Thinking quickly, I would build the body as it was looping to display the page - kill two birds with one connection.

Then when the page has finished, using the string of HTML you have created, loop through the users base and send the emails.
